This book covers the state-of-the-art on electrospun materials for
the use of filters for water remediation, ion-exchange membranes
and affinity membranes for the capture of selected chemical and
biochemical species, as well as filtering applications covering air
treatment, defense and protective applications, and oil-water
separation. The book also provides an overview of the landscape of
marketed electrospun filters and of technical approaches for the
large scale production of nanofibrous non-woven filter media. This
is an ideal book for biomaterials and polymer researchers
interested in the applications of filtering media by
electrospinning. This book also: Covers the latest research on
ion-exchange membranes and affinity membranes for capture of cells
and biological substances Broadens reader understanding of
antimicrobial electrospun filters and sieving filters for liquid
microfiltration Reviews exhaustively the key recent research into
electrospun filters for oil-water separation, heavy metals removal,
and defense and protective applications

The development and application of bioactive nano-structured
constructs for tissue regeneration is the focus of the research
summarised in this thesis. Moreover, a particular focus is the
rational use of supercritical carbon dioxide foaming and
electrospinning technologies which can lead to innovative polymeric
bioresorbable scaffolds made of hydrolysable (both commercial and
'ad-hoc' synthesized) polyesters. Mainly, the author discusses the
manipulation of polymer chemical structure and composition to tune
scaffold physical properties, and optimization of scaffold 3D
architecture by a smart use of both fabrication techniques. The
multidisciplinary nature of this research is imperative in pursuing
the challenge of tissue regeneration successfully. One of the
strengths of this thesis is the integration of knowledge from
chemistry, physics, engineering, materials science and biomedical
science which has contributed to setting up new national and
international collaborations, while strengthening existing ones.
